🚨Exclusive: OpenAI used outsourced Kenyan workers earning less than $2 per hour to make ChatGPT less toxic, my investigation found (Thread)https://t.co/302G0z7vy3— Billy Perrigo (@billyperrigo) January 18, 2023
I agree that the jobs shouldn't exist. But this proposed solution throws the baby, the mother and the whole dang household out with the bathwater. 'State ID the whole internet' is the kind of massively bureaucratic and overly authoritarian approach that I suspect would invalidate a government in any fair society.
I'm starting to realise that fair communistic work organisation solves the problem anyways - nobody will actually be coerced into that kind of shitty work 8 hours a day. If the work needs doing, it can be organised much better, and if its not worth doing, then workers won't do it and the workplaces will find suitable tailored solutions.
